The Mystic Moon

Gift shop

😐 I love to support my local shop. The shop is lovely and the staff is professional and friendly. But make sure to check your order made for pick up. Some items were missing from mine and if I didn’t ask, no one would have let me know which I didn’t appreciate.

Bestwood Winding Engine House

Museum

😐 Very good park for walking but the winding engine museum has very limited opening hours (along with the cafe) and was closed by the time I got there. Wish I would have known before I went.

St Peter's Church, Nottingham

Church

👍👍 A well-maintained Anglican church in the city centre; a few steps away from Old Market Square. A local told me that the original church had been destroyed by fire around 1153 after Matilda’s attack. Empress Matilda was among those who claimed the English throne during the Anarchy (civil war). Matild...

Gedling House Woods

👍👍 Great place to take your dog for a run. Have not had a time yet where I haven't seen anyone not pick up after there dog which is great. Beautiful surroundings. You normally find somewhere to park if driving to the field.

The Park Estate

Park

👍👍 Beautiful period properties that have been painstakingly restored to their former glory. A few hideous buildings that have crept in in more recent years but nothing a good bulldozer won’t sort. History of it being the hunting grounds to the castle is delightful and it’s apparent the wealthy of Nott...

Toton Fields Nature Reserve

Nature preserve

👍 I did not quite know what to make of this place, it's a bit of a miss mash of everything ☺️. We followed Google maps to get here. It does take you to the entrance but this is not clearly signposted so just look around you can't miss it. You can also park on the road for free. The first part of the r...

Netherfield Lagoons

Nature preserve

👍 Beautiful place to go for some nature and wildlife spotting! Only drawback is the one way path from the bridge side of the lagoons it needs clearing by the council. Beautiful adventure non the less :)

St. Peter's Church, Ruddington

Church

Chinese Bell Tower

Historical landmark

👍👍 Victoria Chinese bell tower with a chequered history. It was designed in 1857 by Marriott Ogle Tarbotton as a war memorial and built in 1862. Two of the cannons were captured at Sebastopol in 1854-55, during the Crimean war, with the other two replicas. The bell was looted by British troops from a...
